What Is a Fair Settlement?
When it comes to car accident cases, there is no one-size-fits-all answer to what is considered a “fair” settlement. What is fair will depend on the circumstances of your particular case. To determine how much your case is worth, certain factors are taken into consideration, including:
- The severity of your injuries
- The total amount of medical bills
- Who was at fault for the accident
- Whether you were partially responsible
- Lost wages and earning potential
- The extent of damages such as pain and suffering, physical impairment and your emotional injuries
- The strength of the evidence
